C. Thomas Elliott
Charles Thomas Elliott (known as Tom Elliott), narrow gap semiconductor and infrared detector research.
Early life
Hailing from
Washington Grammar Technical School. After gaining his Ph.D. he worked at the University of Manchester
Career
He joined
CBE in the 1994 Birthday Honours.[2]
He won the Clifford Paterson Medal and Prize in 1997.
Tom Elliott also contributed to the development of the semiconductor
negative luminescence in diode
structures.
He retired from the successor to RRE, DERA in 1999 and is an honorary professor at Heriot-Watt University.
Personal life
A conference centre at DERA Malvern (by 2007
QinetiQ
) was named 'The Tom Elliott Centre' in his honour when opened by the Princess Royal in 2007. He lives in Malvern.
